How to Make a Super Crispy Breading

In a bowl, combine the dry ingredients for the breading base: all-purpose flour, cornstarch, potato starch, and rice flour.

Add the dry seasonings to the mixture: MSG, garlic powder, granulated garlic, hot paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Incorporate the baking powder into the dry mixture to add lightness to the final batter.

To create a wet batter (like for fried fish), add 500 ml of carbonated beverage (beer or seltzer water) to the dry mix.

Mix until you achieve a homogeneous and chemically stable batter. This base can now be used to coat fish, vegetables, or other foods before frying or baking.
